Kamal Haasan's films

Kamal Haasan delivered many blockbusters and cult classic films. However, he was not the first choice for some of his popular films.

Rajinikanth's lost opportunities

Several of Kamal Haasan's superhit films were initially offered to Rajinikanth. However, he turned down the opportunities that were a gai n for Haasan.

Indian

Not Kamal Haasan but Rajinikanth was the first choice for this political thriller. After he rejected the offer, Kamal Haasan headlined the film in dual roles.

Papanasam

Before Kamal Haasan, this Tamil remake of Mohanlal's blockbuster film Drishyam was offered to Rajinikanth.

Lost gems

Actors often end up rejecting iconic roles that turn out major gains for others. Similarly, Kamal Haasan rejected Rajinikanth's Enthiran.

Thug Life

Kamal Haasan is currently gearing up for his highly-anticipated film Thug Life, which marks his reunion with Mani Ratnam. It is set to hit the screens on June 5 .
